Intel's new memory technology could change desktop storage as we know it
While a number of new hardware technologies have been revealed recently, 3D XPoint memory is one to watch out for.

Great tech & definitely the future...but I predict that this will be entirely useless initially.
The current paradigm is 100% built on two distinct categories: 1) Fast RAM, 2) Slow storageEarly Optane products will likely be small, lightning-fast storage and cache drives, if development models are anything to go by.
This is in the middle and manages to fulfil exactly none of the roles. Jack of all trades & master of none. Until a unified model arrives it'll be useless. Use as a cache drive? Please...you can get better performance for half the price with DRAM. Use as a high speed storage? Not big enough to compete with SSD. Sure it's faster but when is the last time you heard about a game being SSD speed constrained???
